The game is fucking awesome so far on the SP front. So much to do, so many ways to approach every situation. The co-op is ok, very linear and buggy. Its cool to play but I don't think it will get multiple playthroughs, once in every chapter will be enough. An as far as MP goes, I have yet to get into a match. I got into one once and 15 seconds later the other team all quit. It looks like it could be fun but the servers are borked and it looks like there are maybe only 2000 people total playing it online.

This.  I'm enjoying the SP very much.  Lot's of missions, collectibles to find, side missions to do, and upgrades to make.  I've tried one MP game and it was pretty cool.  My only reason for wanting to get the MP is to get out of the timmy-infested matches of COD.  However  it just doesn't feel very polished, but maybe I need to go through a few more games to see if it gets better once you unlock some upgrades and such.  All in all, this is a great SP experience, and should not be passed up by any FPS fans.

Funny, it will say 1000 players online in 1500 matches.  I think the math is dorked.  MP has potential.

Yeah I saw the influx of the Timmy's at Christmas
Before Christmas people worked together in every match I played. Players would try to cross the map to revive teammates and all players were always in the action.
After Christmas
Hardly no teamwork, people run over your dying body off to the next kill and not bother at all with teamwork
Was the first time I started to see camping
Sitting in the back of the map sniping
Crouching in corners behind barrels waiting for people to walk by
I wish they would go back to COD

Well, finished the SP the other day. I have to say from that perspective it is the finest game I have played in years. Balanced and challenging. Not keen on the whole straying into fantasy and magic, whether that be hallucination or whatever. Takes away from the grittyness of the rest of it IMO.

Not sure if my forza schedule is going to allow me to explore MP. Sounds weaker and I'm meat in FPS games when I have tried MP.

The SP is really good.  I haven't finished it yet.  The only interest I have in MP anymore is if you can set up private co-op games.  Haven't even tried co-op because ofthe regular MP problems.   Regular MP is just a huge suckfest.  I haven't checked in about a week if any MP issues were resolved.  Guess I should try again or go check their forums.

Whats up guys,

my name is Nogood, do any of you play this game on xbox anymore? This thread seemed to have died about two months ago, I got it at launch and still play it very much so. I was just wandering these forums in hopes of having more people to play with since my group (Lemediocrity) isnt too crazed about this franchise. Anyway hit me up, GT: N0900D, look forward to playing with some of ya.
